Final Score from Chicago: Stockyarders 12 Ontario RL 24

Thanks for the update. Sorry to ask again Stockyarder but was it a full 13 aside played over eighty minutes?

 

[The Stockyarder]

No need to apologize. We just appreciate guys taking an interest. This was a 13 v 13 game over 80 minutes. After 8 years of playing 9 a-side development league (40 minute games) in Chicago this was a step towards applying to enter the USARL. Given the quality of the opposition yesterday's MWRL Challenge Game was essentially a "first grade" debut for the Stockyarders.

I always take an interest in the game being spread, especially in the US. Was the Ontario side a rep team from their domestic set up?

 

[The Stockyarder]

Great to hear. The Ontario team was drawn from the local clubs in the area (3 teams I believe). We hope to work with them to introduce a new conference for the USARL in time. Great people to work with and we hope the next step is to visit Toronto for a return fixture in 2019.
